Sagot :

Answer: A

Step-by-step explanation:

Treat the real and imaginary parts separately, then combine. Because it is addition,  not subtraction, distributing the sign will not make a difference. Remove the parenthesis and group like terms together. Then simplify and put in standard form for imaginary numbers (real first, then imaginary).

2+3i+3-5i

2+3+3i-5i

5+ (-2i)

5-2i
